In 1948, Miss Daisy Werthan, an elderly, cranky ex-school teacher from Atlanta, crashes her new Packard through a retaining wall into her neighbor's yard. Her concerned son Boolie reasons she no longer is able to drive herself, and over her strenuous objections hires the gentle, tactful, and wily black widower Hoke Colburn to be her chauffeur. As a Jew, Miss Daisy is also the victim of prejudice, and she gradually overcomes her subconscious bigotry to see Hoke as a true friend. Beginning in frostiness, their slow changing relationship mirrors the changing racial climate in the south through the burgeoning of civil rights movement

As hosts of the 1995 Rugby World Cup, South Africa's low ranked national team, the Springboks, have a berth in the tournament. Mandela begins makeing public appearances supporting the team, and meets privately with captain Francois Pienaar, encouraging him to inspire his teammates to victory. The Springboks' new slogan is "One team, One nation." President Mandela is betting that if they win the Cup, it might even be a bit true

2 editions published in 1997 in English and held by 11 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Mississippi has always been known for its rich literary and musical heritage even though it also has the highest illiteracy rate of any state. It's been the home of William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, Tennessee Williams, and Muddy Waters. Today, a new generation of artists is emerging from this place that some say embodies the best of American culture, despite poverty and social ills. Through the artists profiled in this film, Barry Hannah (writer), David Malone (blues musician), Lewis Nordan (writer), Donna Tartt (writer) and Morgan Freeman (actor), we see how the spirit of place inspires their creativity

Ein ehemaliger CIA-Agent wird unsanft aus dem Ruhestand gerissen, als ein Trupp Schwerbewaffneter in sein Häuschen einfällt. Nicht unglücklich über diese Unterbrechung seiner Rentnerroutine, wehrt sich der schlagkräftige Veteran und macht sich auf die Suche nach den Hintermännern. Andere alternde Agenten sowie eine etwas übereifrige junge Frau stehen ihm dabei tatkräftig zur Seite. Trotz seiner übermenschlichen Hauptfigur überzeugt der Actionfilm durch ein furioses Ensemble von Altstars und ein Konzept, das die Handlung mit pfiffigen Dialogen, lakonischem Humor und gutem Timing mischt.
